re: Why does the moon rotate like a clock-face above the earth?

the moon is tidally locked (because physics), so the same side always faces us. same story with mercury and the sun or other bodies in similar orbital arrangements.
i think our axial tilt causes the craters appear to rotate, but i'm not sure about that.
